==Fall 2016 Review==
===Projects:===
*Accelerator data
*Blogs!!!
*Christy's twitter crawler
*Ed's academic paper
*Amir, Jake, James, Will academic paper
*Social media
**Facebook page
**Tweeting
***Hootsuite
===What went well:===
*Blogs are up, running, and an integral part of the McNair Center now!
*There's a lot of student ownership over projects
*We have a critical mass of interns
**Who can for the most part write well, and know basic research skills but to reach full potential need to develop data analysis skills such as SQL to deal with big data
===Needs improvement:===
*Organization
**Clear project management - defined goals, check-ins w Ed, specific milestones or checkpoints throughout the project
*Project ideas with a clearly defined end product
**Some more short term, some long term
**Of course, we need to have or develop requisite skills needed in order to develop the product
*More SQL/data research tools/how to use SDC Platinum, etc. Maybe teach one person and they can teach others.
*Publicity
**maybe publicize our blog posts more on Facebook and Twitter?
**Write more academic papers/issue briefs so we can gain advertisement from the Baker Institute
*We probably need another Harsh or comp sci person
